public service announcement

keep left unless overtaking.
the right hand lane is for doing 10 over, not 10 under you morons.

and sure, drive slower in the rain, but do so in another lane,
there's no need to drive side by side at 90 in a 110 zone.

Now Showing: Lightning Storm

its crazy here in eastwood at the moment, lightning bolts every 5 seconds.

car hunting (for the future)

2000-2002 Porsche Boxster S 986.
Pros:
its a porsche
its a porsche
its a porsche.
Cons:
apparently maintence is very very pricey
apparently not the most reliable car, "you will more than likely suffer a catastrophic engine failure during your ownership of the car" is what people on forums are saying.


2007 Audi S3
Pros:
turrrrrbo
much quicker than the porsche
it'd be new, and have warranty
Cons:
its not a porsche


opinions? alternatives? budget = 60-70k (of which i'll have half of by the end of the year hopefully)
and i'd like to steer clear of anything j-spec, just don't think its me.
